While OI accounts for both long and short positions, its increase signals that traders expect an asset to make notable moves in the near term. Following recent recovery efforts, this futures position growth appears to be tilted towards a price rebound for the second-largest meme coin by market cap.

Shiba Inu Spot and Futures Flows

The Shiba Inu spot and futures flow adds a new perspective. The former explains spot SHIB exchange flows, and the latter highlights the rate of capital influx into derivatives contracts.

While OI has increased in the past 24 hours, the Shiba Inu futures flows have dwindled over the last 12 hours. With inflows of $2.423 million and outflows of $2.68 million, the CoinGlass data show that over $251,000 has been withdrawn from derivative contracts.

Meanwhile, spot flows show increased selling pressure. In the past 24 hours, SHIB exchange balances have risen by $2,630 worth of tokens, as inflows have trumped outflows. More tokens available on exchanges suggests a bias towards distribution rather than accumulation among holders.

However, bearish momentum still dominates. A recent analysis highlights a bearish continuation pattern that would only be invalidated if Shiba Inu reclaims $0.00000815. Notably, this is an analytical report and not financial advice.
